But now I am seeing "possible deadlock" warnings involving genl_lock:
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
4.9.0-rc8+ #77 Not tainted
-------------------------------------------------------
syz-executor7/18794 is trying to acquire lock:
(rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff86b4682c>] rtnl_lock+0x1c/0x20
net/core/rtnetlink.c:70
but task is already holding lock:

(genl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff86cc27c9>]
genl_rcv_msg+0x209/0x260 net/netlink/genetlink.c:658
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
